On February 28, 2022, during Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Pisharyov introduced a bill in his committee that would criminalize the distribution of "fake" news or information about the war, with punishments of up to 15 years in prison.[4] Determination of whether the information was "fake" is left to the Russian government. The bill was widely criticized as a ploy to silence independent journalism in the country.[5][6][4] The bill passed the Duma and was signed into law on March 4 by Russian President Vladimir Putin, prompting dozens of news organizations, both in and out of Russia, to stop publishing news about the war.[5]
